Officer Sharp was not the key point. The key point was Jeffery.
He was just the person who carried out the plan, not the mastermind.
Boyce pulled Armand into the house.
It was very quiet and clean inside the house. Loredana was still unconscious, and Cormac saw beside her, holding her palm in his hand. Her cold palms had already been warmed by his hands. Boyce and Armand stood by the bed.
“What do you plan to do?”
Boyce spoke in a soft voice, afraid that he might disturb Loredana.
The light rays that came in from outside the window shone on half of Cormac’s face. His thick eyelashes slightly fluttered, held Loredana’s hands, and his thumb slowly caressed through Loredana’s delicate arm. “Boyce, do you still have anyone else that you can use?”
His voice was deep, without showing any emotions.
Boyce replied, “Yes.”
And it was his most trusted men.
“Let them keep an eye on the Chamber’s family house. Seize Chloe once she appears.”
There was no way out of this. Loredana’s charges could never be cleared unless Jeffery opens his mouth.
However, it was obvious that Jeffery would not open his mouth since he wanted Cormac to marry Chloe. But what if Chloe was captured by him?
‘Can he threaten them with this?’
‘Jeffrey wants him to marry Chloe?’
Boyce and Armand looked at each other. Why was this related to the Chamber’s family?
Why would Cormac want to capture Chloe?
Cormac told them frankly, “They wanted me to marry her.”
Armand was too angry and spoke recklessly, “Has Jeffery gone mad?”
Cormac glanced askance at him. Armand quickly covered his mouth. He was too agitated just now, so he accidentally raised his voice. “You may all leave first.”
Now, he just wanted to accompany her alone.
“I’ll go personally.”
Boyce was clear of Cormac’s purpose. Capturing Chloe was the most important thing now, and it’s the only turning point for this incident. Armand was unable to provide any assistance at the moment, “If you need me, you can call me anytime.”
Boyce replied to him, “Okay.”
The two of them went out of the door together.
Officer Sharp was still at the door, seemingly guarding it personally as if he was afraid that Cormac might move Loredana somewhere else.
Cormac would not do that.
Hiding Loredana would not solve the root problem. If a warrant was issued, Loredana would be officially convicted.
As soon as the door was closed, the room returned to its previous silence once again. Cormac lay down beside the bed and put Loredana’s head in on top of his arms. At this moment, the phone in his pocket started vibrating.
He frowned as if he was a little displeased that someone was calling him right now. As soon as the call was connected, Simona’s soft and sweet voice came through, “Daddy.”
Cormac spoke softly, “Yes.”
“Have you eaten dinner?”
The little girl asked caringly.
Cormac gently replied to his daughter, “I’ve eaten.”
At the Mendelsohn Mansion, Simona was holding the phone while surrounded by Samuel and Sean. At this moment, Sean was mouthing words to Simona, signaling her to ask Cormac what time he and Loredana would come back home.
Because of the TV show from before, Sean wanted to look for Loredana. And tomorrow morning would be the 24th hour after the game, they would need to open handcuffs in front of the audience.
That was why he came here today. On the one hand, he wanted to see the two children, and secondly, he needed to discuss with Loredana regarding this matter. However, it was so late already, and they hadn’t come back yet.
Therefore, he asked Simona to call Cormac.
The little girl instantly understood his gestures and said to the phone, “Daddy, what time are you and mommy coming back home?”
Sean immediately gave Simona a thumbs up. She’s so clever.
Cormac lowered his eyes and looked at Loredana who was still deeply asleep, and said in a low voice, “I and your mummy have some other things to do, so we are not going back tonight.”
The little girl frowned, why weren’t they coming back?
“Are you two playing something fun, deliberately not bring me and brother?”
The little girl said aggrievedly.
Sean was stunned. Why were they not coming back?
Then where could he go find Loredana?
He took the phone from Simona, “Let me talk to your dad.”
“Cormac, why are you two not coming back? I’m waiting for you guys at home.”
Hearing that it was Sean, Cormac’s voice became even deeper, “Sean, stay at my place for the next few days.”
Sean was a trustable person. He was worried about the two children at home. Since Sean was Simona’s previous teacher, and he was also familiar with the two children, he could put his mind at ease if Sean stayed at his house.
Sean blinked his eyes. He had always wanted to stay at Cormac’s villa, but last time he didn’t agree to let him stay here, thinking that he would make trouble.
But what happened today?
This wasn’t like Cormac at all.
“Cormac, is something wrong? Do you need my help?”
“Help me take good care of the two of them.”
This was his only request.
